Abstract
There are provided an ultrasonic cleaning apparatus and an ultrasonic cleaning method capable of suppressing occurrence of damage on a substrate to be cleaned and capable of performing cleaning at a high cleaning level for highly precise substrates and the like used in an electronics industry. Occurrence of damage on the substrate to be cleaned is suppressed by holding an object to be cleaned so as to be positioned out of a region where perpendiculars extend from an oscillating surface of an ultrasonic transducer to a liquid surface (an ultrasonic-irradiated region) under and in the vicinity of the liquid surface of a cleaning solution, exciting a capillary wave on a surface of the cleaning solution by an ultrasonic wave, and separating particulate contamination of the object to be cleaned by an acoustic pressure generated by the capillary wave without irradiating the object to be cleaned directly with the ultrasonic wave.
